Is there a limit on how many programs to which I can apply?

There is no limit on the number of programs to which you can apply; however, an application fee may apply.

Please consult our fees page of a match for more detailed information:

• R-1 Main Residency Match fees
• Medicine Subspecialty Match fees
• Family Medicine / Enhanced Skills Match fees
• Pediatric Subspecialty Match fees

Since the 2022 R-1 Main Residency Match, program application fees will be charged for each program discipline an applicant applies to at a university (university + discipline), rather than for each program site (university + discipline + training site) as has been the case in previous years. This change means that applicants wishing to apply to multiple training sites within the same program discipline at a given university will no longer have to pay additional fees to do so, resulting in greater financial equity for applicants regardless of their chosen career path.
